 ## Branded One-Click Installs
 
-Raw `npx` MCP server installs are command/config based. They do not provide a reliable user-facing install card, logo, or setup screen inside MCP clients. Use `mcp-scraper-install` for terminal onboarding text. Do not print marketing text to stdout from an MCP server; stdout is reserved for JSON-RPC protocol messages.

 For a branded Claude Desktop install, package MCP Scraper as an MCPB Desktop Extension. The repository now builds one combined MCPB bundle with a generated icon, `manifest.json`, bundled runtime dependencies, and `user_config` fields for API-key setup, API URL, and output folder.
